Abstract
Two sites in Mississippi River Pool 15 (near Moline, Illinois) were quantitatively sampled for mussels in June 1987 through the cooperative efforts of the Illinois Natural History Survey (INHS) River Research Laboratory (RRL) and biologists from the Illinois Department of Conservation (DOC) . This report summarizes those results and briefly compares them with previous INHS/DOC collections and other recent mussel surveys of Mississippi River Pool 15.
